Ford losses 8.7 Billion - and accelerates transformation plans
2008-07-24 16:05:00 Ford announced an enormous loss today for the 2nd quarter. The loss was larger than expected at $8.7B. Ford also announced that it is accelerating the move to small cars by stating that a total of 6 small vehicles form Europe would be manufactured in the Americas for our market. Only 3 of the vehicles were named: Fiesta, Focus, and Transit and these three had already all been announced. Two of the remaining three will probably be crossovers, and the third is speculated to be the Mondeo. However, the Mondeo overlaps with the Fusion - so how Ford will work this out remains to be seen. An updated Fusion will also come out next year, with enhanced engines and a hybrid powerplant for the first time. Past examples of European Fords brought to North America were all de-contented from their European counterparts. The European Mondeo for example, was an up-market product in Europe but was de-contented for North America as the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique. Now that small cars are impor...

Medicinal mercury in Medieval bones
2008-06-02 14:13:00 The Middle Ages, often referred to as Medieval times, spanned a long period in history from the 5th to the 16th Centuries. During this time, European society and culture enjoyed many advances and it could be argued that the quality of life improved beyond recognition. One area which progressed steadily was medicine and the treatment of disease, although these days we would not touch some of the medicinal compounds with a bargepole, let alone administer them to patients.One substance in popular use was mercury, used variously in gilding of jewellery and weapons, in inks and, yes, as medicines. Most Europeans would have had some mercury in their bodies, a lot more than background levels today, but those working with mercury compounds or being treated with them suffered far greater exposure.Mercury was used to treat diseases with symptoms that manifested themselves on the skin. One such disease was syphilis, which was widespread at the time and was treated by the administration of merc...

Blue Mercury ~ Shopping for Perfume in New York
2008-05-29 23:29:00 Manhattan?s Upper West Side has never been known for its luxury shopping. It has long been famous for the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, for the Museum of Natural History, for its blocks of historic brownstones, and for Zabar?s, that peerless emporium of all things edible; but definitely not for boutiques that sell cosmetics and perfume. There have been some changes over the past year or two, however, and Blue Mercury is the latest beauty-oriented newcomer to the neighborhood. Blue Mercury is a mini-chain of beauty boutiques with a primary emphasis on skincare; accordingly, you?ll see plenty of luxury skin and hair products stocking the shelves of the Manhattan shop, as well as familiar upscale cosmetics brands such as NARS and T. Leclerc. The sales associates are skincare consultants and makeup artists rather than fragrance experts, but the scent-related merchandise is accessible enough to encourage independent browsing and spritzing. If you?ve ever visited Blue Mercury st...

Vaccines, Mercury, and Autism - Is There a Link?
2008-05-23 04:02:00 At the very least, why not remove mercury and other toxic substances like aluminum, anti-freeze, and formaldehyde as preservatives from vaccinations; space out the schedule of shots, instead of giving so many at once; and delay giving some of the riskiest of them until infants are somewhat older? Vaccines, Mercury, and Autism – Is There a Link?by Lewis Regenstein DIGG THISIn recent years, there has been an explosion of neurological disorders among children, the most serious of which is the crippling syndrome knows as autism.The dramatic increase in the incidence of autism has accompanied the more than tripling of the childhood vaccination schedule, and many parents have described how their perfectly normal, alert, intelligent, healthy infants suddenly regressed into an autistic state after receiving vaccination shots.Pediatricians and health officials have long ridiculed the claims of parents of thousands of autistic children, that vaccines appear to have played a role in...

Vermont Passes New Legislation limiting Lead, Phthalates and Mercury!
2008-05-07 17:00:00 As Vermont's legislative session closed, I held my breath and hoped that all or most of the environmental health bills would pass. And happily, most of them did. The bill that I had been most involved in, S.152, the Lead in Consumer Products bill, passed both the House and the Senate. Some of the provisions were weakened over the process, but the bill is one of the strongest lead product safety bills in the country. The bill sets new standards to be phased in on lead in children's products. No, the levels are not zero, but they are a good start in protecting our kids from lead exposures from children's products such as toys, bibs, diaper bags and pads. It also phases out lead in wheel weights and non-residential paints and primers and according to VPRIG, "Sets a standard on lead in plumbing fixtures and related supplies (we will be the 2nd state in the nation to have this protective standard on plumbing)". In a most helpful provision, it requires warnings to be posted for jewelry...

The Mercury Mavens
2008-05-04 14:00:00 George Washington had the finest medical care available. Unfortunately, given the primitive medicine of the era, that wasn't nearly enough to save him. While it is probably unlikely that he would have survived his final illness, the aggressive treatment that the great statesman received certainly didn't help. His doctors blistered his skin (to draw off "humours"), gave him frequent bleedings (Martha Washington had objected to the bleedings but her husband overrode her), and applied poultices of wheat bran. They also purged him with mercurous chloride to empty his bowels. After growing weaker and finally asking his doctors to leave him alone, George Washington died on December 14, 1799 at the age of 67. The exact nature of his final illness remains unclear but modern historians believe it may have been diphtheria or strep throat. The medical care that he received almost certainly played a role as well (not that he would be the last U.S. president to be killed by well-inte...

Jerry York: Ford should sell Volvo, Mercury
2008-05-02 03:13:00 Jerry York: Ford should sell Volvo, Mercury Jerry York, a prominent representative of Kirk Kerkorian's Tracinda Corp, said on Thursday he thinks Ford should sell Volvo and sell or kill Mercury. Tracinda famously attempted to arrange an alliance between GM and Renault-Nissan last year, but failed and subsequently dumped most of its GM stock. Tracinda is now increasing its stake in Ford. York said he believes Ford's CEO, Alan Mulally, is probably planning to sell Volvo within the next 18 months. He said there is no "rational reason" for Ford to keep the Swedish automaker, according to trade publication Automotive News. York says he simply speaking hypothetically, but he did meet with Mulally last month — suggesting his speculation might be well-founded. As for Mercury, York outline two options — selling the brand or simply shutting it down. As reported by Leftlane Ford has virtually no new products in the pipeline for the brand. In fact, the Milan ...
